Tell us about your virtual teaching experience

Many teachers needed to discover how to use virtual platforms to deliver lessons and what kinds of materials they could use or create for the students they couldn’t reach that way. The learning curve for teachers, parents, and students has been steep and rocky. Some had tools to succeed better than others. Regardless of the level at which they succeeded, their efforts have been heroic.

At DFSME, we would like Delaware teachers to help us acquire the data we need in order to help create appropriate policies in Delaware for moving forward. We need to advocate for the kinds of professional learning and materials that will ensure that every teacher can meet the challenges of the coming school year, in both physical and virtual environments. We need to do all we can to ensure that every child – regardless of circumstance – has equitable access to excellent STEM education.
